TAILORS PRESSING-MACHINE.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 705,826, dated July 29, 1902. A

Application filed September 11, 1901. Serial No. 75,005. (No model.) I

To ctZZ whom, it may concern).-

Be it known that I, JOHN DZIEOH, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of Cincinnati, in the county of Hamilton and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Tailors Pressing Machines, of which the followingis a specification. i

The object of my invention is a tailors pressing-machine with which the goose can be moved about over the cloth as freely as though held simply in the hand, and when desired a heavy pressure can readily be brought to bear This object is attained by the means described in the specification and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which T Figure 1 is a side elevation of a machine embodying my invention attached to a table. Fig. 2 is a horizontal sectional detail view of the plate for coupling the machine to the table, upon an enlarged scale, taken upon line .2 2 of Fig. .1. Fig. 3 is a detail vertical sectional view' of the swivel-joint upon an enlarged scale. Fig. 4is a vertical section taken upon line 66 00 of Fig. 1. Figs. 5 and 6 are detail enlarged views of the tailors goose, showin bar for coupling it to the machine.

lteferring to the parts, standard A has a foot on for securing it to the floor and a vertical guide-bar af for engaging a sliding plate B, which may be moved up and down upon the guide-bar to fit down upon and be secured to table-tops G of varying heights. I In standard A above guide-bar a is a vertical longitudinal slot a within which a lever D is swung upon a pivot d Lever D has upon its upper end two horizontal lugs 01 d, between which arm E is pivoted upon a vertical pine. Arm E has at its upper end two similar horizontal lugs e a between which an arm F is pivoted upona vertical pin f. Arm F has at its lower end a socket f',.into which a ball g upon a rod G fits. RodG at its upper end is screw-threaded to receive a wing nut g" and upon its lower end is bent into an arm 9 ing the weight of the iron.

which fits beneath a bar It, secured upon top of goose I-I, being held therein by a pin 9 passed through its end. Above foot or standard A has a vertical longitudinal slot a within which is pivoted a foot-lever M, the short arm of which abuts against the downturned end of lever D and the long arm of which terminates in a foot-plate m. LeverD is upheld by a spring N, attached at one end to the lever and at the other to the end of a screwthreaded pin 01;, which passes through standard A and has upon its other end a wing-nut a by which the tension of the spring may be regulated.

In use spring N is put at a tension, such that it will just sustain the weight of a tailors goose, so that the muscles of the forearm are not tired in the operation of pressing by lift By reason of the swivel-joint the iron can be pointed in any direction, and the double joints in the arms allow the tailor to move it in any direction, so that it is as freely moved in difierent directions as though held in the hand. Should it be desired to bring a heavy pressure upon the cloth at any point, the foot is pressed down upon plate m, which stands in a position conveniently reached. I

What I claim is-"- In a tailors pressing-machine the combination of a standard, an upper-and a lower lever pivoted to the standard each to swing in avertical plane the lower lever bearing upward against the upper, a'spring attached to 86 the upper end of the upper leverand to the standard at a point above the lever, an arm coupled to the upper end of the upper lever to swing in a horizontal plane, and a second arm coupled to the free end of the first arm to swing in a horizontal plane, substantially as shown and described.

JOHN DZIEOH.
